Peter Wehner: The Liberals’ Breakdown: “As Obama’s failures mount up, it will only get worse. The volume will only get louder. And the charges will only get more desperate and incendiary.”

More?  Really, where could Democrats and their liberal supporters take their reactions from here?

First, they sent the union thugs.  But it didn’t work.

Then, they sent the cannibals, but it didn’t work either.

Then they hurled the most powerful and most disarming of epithets in American culture against the opposition.  But it’s not working.

All they have left is Alinsky Rule #5: Ridicule, “man’s most potent weapon”.  Humor can be comforting, cathartic, and escapist.  But making fun of the other side under their current circumstances is like playing the fiddle while Rome burns.
